But it’s very different!<br>It is the hottest planet in the solar system.</p><p>Venus has thick clouds of carbon dioxide and sulphuric acid. These trap heat, making it super hot!</p><p>A day on Venus is longer than its year. Venus spins so slowly that it takes 243 Earth days to complete one spin, but its year is only 225 Earth days!</p><p>The Sun rises in the west and sets in the east because Venus spins the opposite way to Earth. Isn’t that weird?</p><p>Venus is not easy to study. Its heat and thick clouds can damage spacecraft quickly. But ISRO is working hard to make sure Shukrayaan is ready for the challenge. Let’s cheer for ISRO as they take India to Venus!</p>

ISRO’s Shukrayaan mission will explore Venus's atmosphere, surface, and interactions with the sun.
